The Fall of Empires
Less than a generation after the invention of moving pictures, everyone is seeking ever-more exotic, exciting images. Cameras capture a man diving from the Eiffel Tower in a cape he invented as a parachute. The show ends in sudden death. In this episode, moving images record literary giant, Leo Tolstoy, The Russo-Japanese War, modern dance pioneer, Isadora Duncan, Russia's Bloody Sunday, the private life of the Romanovs, America's immigrant influx, the last czar of Russia, Nicholas II, and the event in Sarajevo that triggered World War I.
